That this city is enjoying what is call
ed boom cannot be denied; but in many
important respects it is different from
and much better than the boom of many
cities 1t is not. like the measles, d
transient outbreak of spring time. 1t is
the steady growth of years. 1t is built
from The ground up. Now railroad has
come and now factory, and now a
wholesale house. AT last the street cars,
and ,hen the electric light, free delivery,
and other advantages of modern times
have come. A clear river, one of the
greatest waterways GA the face of the
globe affords US plenty of pure water.

Or. Mdilynn, though he mentioned no name.
The archbishop sand two errors were widely
prevalent at the present. time. The first wa,
the idea that private ownership of land was
unjust This was contrary both 10 philosophy
and common sense and TO the tesirblngs of the
church. Those who claimed that land, like
sunshine and air, being Gods gift, was equally
the property of all, overlooked the difference
between those things, namely: That sun and
air can not be reduced TO private possession
as land can He cited the condition of the
Indians as showing the result of common own
ership in land He also said the idea of com
mon right TO the benefits OF land was con
trary 10 Espal decree and TO the ordinances ol

The second error was that the pope had tn,
right to command and To he OBEY ed only in mat

NEW YORK, May 17.-Rev Samuel Nc

Al first the revival was conducted in the

some young people The revivalist shook his

and then, as it is reported, he seized Mr..

The next instant the interior of the gospel
tent looked about as circus would if the rhi-

up and shouted altogether When the people
got out of the tent a consultation was held
by Mr.. Leach and other townspeopte who had

TWENTY thousand is said to be low
estimate of the number of men connec-
ted with the building trades who are now
idle in Chicago This includes brick lay
ers, stone mssons, plasterers, nod car
riers, etc. Indirectly MANY other work
men are thrown out of employment
through the absence of a demand for
building materials The trouble may be
described rs partially strike on the part
OF the men and partially lock out on
the part of the bosses Many of the
laborers had struck and others threatened
TO do so, whereupou the bosses took the
bull by the horns and discontinued Oper-
atoms entirely The points of difference
are several, but the chief bone of Conten-
ton seems to be the day on which wages
shall be paid Tuesday has heretofore
been the pay day, and the men demand
that it shall be changed TO Saturday. The
contractors say that they have men EN-
pIoyed on Jobs in various parts of the
vast city of Chicago, and that it is i'm
possible to make up their pay roll before
Tuesday. Whether this is true or not.
it may. well be considered very
doubtful question whether the best inter
ests of the men themselves will be- adj
vanced by the change. The ARGUS
has no sympathy with paternalIsm. 1t
does not think that the morals or
habits of any class in the community are
in the keeping Of any other class. Never
theless there are certain facts which all
are compelled to recognize. One of these
facts ls that in great cities like Chicago
Saturday night and Sunday are the chief
occasions for drunkenness and debauch-
more apt to GO on spree when their
pockets are full than when they are COM
paratively empty. Whether people are
paid on Saturday or Monday makes no
difference IN the amount they receive, but
it is likely to make great deal of
difference in the amount they keep.
Moreover, men who drink heavily on
Sunday are not capable of performing
their full quota of work the day after.
For these reasons, and also for the sake
of convenience, Monday is gradually
supplanting Saturday as pay day in large
establishments
